Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about Location QR codes. Find answers about GPS accuracy, app compatibility, and offline usage.

What is a Location QR code?

A Location QR code contains GPS coordinates that open in the user's preferred maps app when scanned. It uses the native geo: protocol, so it works with Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, or any mapping app the user has installed.

Which maps apps does it work with?

Location QR codes work with any maps app! When scanned, the phone opens whichever maps app the user has set as default - Google Maps, Apple Maps, Waze, HERE Maps, or any other navigation app.

How accurate is the GPS location?

GPS coordinates can be precise down to a few meters. You can enter an exact address, place name, or GPS coordinates to pinpoint any location on Earth with high accuracy.

Can people get directions from the QR code?

Yes! Once the location opens in their maps app, users can immediately tap 'Directions' to get turn-by-turn navigation from their current location to your destination.

Does it work offline?

The QR code itself works offline to open the maps app with the location. However, users need internet to load map tiles and get directions unless they have offline maps downloaded.

Can I add a custom pin label?

You can include a location name or label that will appear in the maps app. This helps users identify the destination when they scan the QR code.
